I would be very selective about doing this. I beleive you are better off offering what you saw to you partner and letting your partner change his call. The next time a coach doesn't like your partner's call he will want you to overrule it, regardless of the circumstance. You risk your partner's credibility by simply overruling. Plus, your partner may have seen something that you did not see.

Besides, if you did it to me we would discuss it, thoroughly, at the next opportunity and it wouldn't happen, with me as your partner, again.
